Primary Bedaquiline Resistance Among Cases of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis in Taiwan

Abstract: Bedaquiline (BDQ), which is recommended for the treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB), was introduced in Taiwan in 2014. Due to the alarming emergence of BDQ resistance, we conducted BDQ resistance analyses to strengthen our DR-TB management program. This retrospective population-based study included initial Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from 898 rifampicin-resistant (RR) or multidrug-resistant (MDR) TB cases never exposed to BDQ during 2008–2019. We randomly selected 65 isolates and identifie… Show more

“… 24 In three reports that used an MIC of ≥0.25 mg/L as the cut-off for resistance using the agar proportion method, the prevalence of primary BDQ resistance was 2.3% (8/347), 4.4% (4/90) and 3.1% (28/898). 12 , 23 , 26 …”

“…Fourth, the phenotype-genotype reported in studies included in the analysis may not always be accurate due to lack of standardization of BDQ pDST and the use of the current critical concentration to determine the BDQ resistance phenotype [ 24 ]. This may especially be a problem for mutations that confer a modest increase in BDQ MIC, which overlaps with the wild-type MIC distribution [ 41 ]. Fifth, to maximally use all reported data on BDQ resistance given a specific mutation, data on clinical and non-clinical isolates was combined and analyzed.…”

“…78 Mutations in the atpE (Rv1305), pepQ (Rv2535c), and mmpR (Rv0678), Rv1979c genes of MTB confer resistance to BDQ. 29,79 Mutations in the atpE gene cause a high-level resistance to BDQ with the most frequently identified mutations being Ala63Pro and Ile66Met. 22,29,34,80 The other mutations occurring in atpE include Asp28Ala, Ala63Val, and Ile66Val.…”

“…22 Mutations in the Rv0678 gene cause a low-level cross resistance between BDQ and CFZ. 79 Similarly, mutations in the Rv2535c cause a low-level resistance to BDQ and CFZ. 79 Mutations in the pepQ gene confer cross-resistance between CLO and BDQ.…”
